A very good question... after all, "sex" is the easy part, as it's a biological urge we (mostly) all posess and act upon without "provocation".
I'd ask why the specific imagery that is used to "display" sex to the masses (almost alway in conjunction with violence) is so prevalent.... and would it really, REALLY change, if women controlled the medium. As if a corporate world of Carly Fiornas could or would mold modern American industrial society to a different form or ethical standard.
